The Crush Thread!
Public Service Announcement from The Fallen Phoenix
(Hint, Hint: Everyone Read)
_________________________________________________________
The Fallen Phoenix walks onto the stage and addresses the audience.
Ahem...well, okay. I have a public service announcement to make! I've been observing (and posting in) this thread for quite a while, and I must admit, it is a nice, fun thread. However, there comes a point where everything gets out of control, and that is excatly what is happening here.
If it weren't for the title, several members probably wouldn't even know what the original topic of this thread was! Now, GK tried to split the thread, but as you can tell it is getting very difficult to weed out the different sub-topics that have emerged in this thread (for those who don't know, it's actually pretty difficult to split threads...you can only split posts one page at a time, and this thread has 22 pages now...which makes for a very time consuming task.
How many of you remember the old Speakeasy thread? It was the first thread to 1,000 replies, and we all remember what happened to that thread, even after constant warnings to keep the post count down (you know, locked for weeks at a time until it was finally permanately locked and deleted)...
This thread is already nearing half the amount of posts the Speakeasy had when it closed (actually, if you add in all the deletions, probably a quarter of the amount of posts), and this thread has only been up what? One, two days?
At the very least, if the thread doesn't return to its original topic, try to keep the post count down! When GK, Krang, and Shredder finally get around to cleaning through this thread, it'll be much easier to sift through if there aren't so many posts.
Indeed, it might come to the point that the only solution is to lock and/or delete the thread.
And I know a lot of members would be very unhappy by that.
Just keep these things in mind, is really all I ask from you. Thank you, and this ends the public service announcement from The Fallen Phoenix.
The Fallen Phoenix politely bows, then slowly walks off the stage as the crowd re-erupts into chaos.

Also, how many of you have heard about the EDIT button? You know, instead of double-posting, you can just edit additional stuff into your initial post...

Again, no one wants the posts to be locked or deleted
. We're glad that you're all communicating and getting along, but if a thread gets too large and goes over a certain amount of pages in a given day - especially if some of those posts stretch into off-topic persuits, such as what this one did for a while - it could waste bandwidth and cause problems for the forums as a whole, and we wouldn't want that
. Things have calmed down a bit, and I know that drift can't be avoided at times 
, but please try to stay as much on topic as possible

The following is a list of names picked out from the members list of Paradigm City Forums beginning with the letter R, are of the opposite gender of Byranx (or undefined), and judged to be at least a semi-active member in the forums in order for Bryanx to actually cast his eyes on...
Without further ado, let the random "crush" picking begin!
01. R and D
02. R Trusedale
03. R.D
04. R.Dorothy Waynewright
05. R.Dorothy_1
06. RDorothy
07. Redd
08. Red_Destiny
09. Rouge
10. R_Dorothied
Oh yeah, I noticed, but Blue Crow was first to post about it. Man, I've got to be really bored to actually sift through the members list...

0_o...quite the detective
The thread has gone horribly off topic. I'm admittedly one of the biggest offenders tonight. The point of this thread is about "forum crushes" and us joking around isn't about the given topic. For that I apologize, but I mean every word I said in the "Mike Brady" post.
The soap oprea was us blowing off steam. If we do it again, we'll do it as a seperate thread. That way people know what they're getting into or can avoid it like the plague.
edit: Thanks Wienberg!
